In the lineage of Peter Straub's Julia, Scott Thomas’ Violet is the disturbing tale of a woman haunted by her long-abandoned imaginary friend.

For many children, the summer of 1988 was filled with sunshine and laughter. But for ten-year-old Kris Barlow, it was her chance to say goodbye to her dying mother.

Three decades later, loss returns—her husband killed in a car accident. And so, Kris goes home to the place where she first knew pain—to that summer house overlooking the crystal waters of Lost Lake. It’s there that Kris and her eight-year-old daughter will make a stand against grief.

But a shadow has fallen over the quiet lake town of Pacington, Kansas. Beneath its surface, an evil has grown—and inside that home where Kris Barlow last saw her mother, an old friend awaits her return.

@Crystal: I agreed on reading this one with you, but I can't. It seems there's no English copy available on Kindle, only the Italian and German version. Sorry...

Aww bummer. I'll let you know how it is, I'm diving in right now!!

Okay, hopefully I can find a copy later somewhere.

I wanna say I hope it's bad so you're not missing out but time will tell :P

Think I'm going to put this to the side for now myself. Didn't make it in very far & couldn't get into the story... Got distracted by Prime day and life!! Think I'm just not in the mood ATM. I will try to reassess around spooky season lol

Have you got far into the book and is it good? Maybe I'll order a paper copy if it's worth it.

Honestly I haven't picked it back up since I put it down. Not sure if I just wasn't in the right frame of mind or it was just that I was not in the mood lol. Might try again around Halloween!
